drabble #3

disclaimer: Pita Ten and its characters do not belong to me. All rights belong to their respective owners, however the creator, Koge-Donbo completely owns this series.

pairing: none; hinted one
rating: pg
theme: look away
summary: it's her marriage, and she tells herself to be happy because of it. 230 word drabble.

a/n: Er, don't read this one unless you're in the mood for confusion, sadness, and a weird, kind of bittersweet ending. The pairing is ambiguous, however I will award you with a cookie if you can correctly guess the unnamed characters. Well it's short and silly, because I can't seem to produce anything beyond this. Also, I'm having a major procrastination and I can't seem to complete anything right now. :sigh:

They are all at her wedding, and she smiles triumphantly. She knows that they are all gathered there to watch her, admire her, envy her as she enjoys the marriage she has wanted all her life with him. She wears a silk gown, falling far pass her ankles and hiding the frilly slippers she wore just for this occasion.

But there is one guest who is different; even as she strides by him, he turns away when she glances at him. Her smile fades, and she frowns curiously at him. He does not look at her.

He refuses to look once, even as she proposes to him, he never says anything. He claps along with the other guests, but he never smile.

Only after the wedding is over, afterward when she feels pleased and comfortable; he finally approaches her.

He never says a word, only comes to shake her hand politely, but when she tries to meet his gaze, she can see something more in there. There is something deeper than the lies, the warmth and the kindness. There is sadness etched deep in their swirling, murky green depths. She feels cold suddenly, even when his skin feels warm. She knows there is coldness inside him.

Her eyes grow shiny with wet tears, and she doesn't even know why. But this time; she is the one who looks away when he finally looks at her.
